Local Government Officers database - by Oscar Research (25k records)

The Local Government database covers all Councillors, Senior and Mid-Level Management Posts and key lower level functional positions across all UK Councils. This database also covers Police and Fire Services, plus Parks, Transport and Combined Authorities. The structure of Local Authorities varies across England/Scotland/Wales and Northern Ireland and also in different areas of England. Following major re-organisation in 1995 Wales and Scotland merged all their District and County Councils creating a single Authority for each area; these are known as Unitary Authorities and provide all Council functions. In England, although some reorganisation took place, there continued to be a mixture of 'single tier' authorities - Unitary / Metropolitan / London Boroughs. With the rest of the Country covered by 'Two Tier' authorities - English Country Councils and District Councils; where functions are divided between the two authority types. Further re-organisation took place in 2007 with a number of County and District Councils being replaced with single Unitary Councils.

背景概述

该数据库包含2.5万条记录，涵盖了英国所有议会的议员、中高级管理人员以及关键职能职位，并扩展至警察、消防等服务机构和公园、交通等联合当局。由于1995年和2007年的重组，英国各地的地方政府结构存在差异，包括单一层级（如单一当局、大都会区）和双层体系（如郡议会与区议会），导致职能划分方式不同。
